Thank you, Mr. Chairman. Mr. Chairman, if we accept the fact that in the Canadian Constitution the Metis people are recognized along with First Nations people, and that First Nations people and Inuit and Inuvialuit have non-insured health benefits, we've had them I think initially I believe at 60 percent, the Metis people; recognizing that they are one of the aboriginal governments of the land and should be on the same par as the other First Nations and Inuvialuit. We've kept it at 60 percent, then 80, and we've moved it to 100 percent. I see that as a separate issue, Mr. Chairman.
